Fri 11/6/2009 11:52p | At least you guys have seen him. When we road a couple of times during opening year, the cave was just pitch black. I was so upset because he was the main reason why I wanted to go to WDW. |

A few seconds of looking at a fairly impressive animatronic robot was your main reason for crossing an ocean?
Yikes.
;p
(the monster worked for me a couple of years ago, but it still kinda sucked...the ride itself was way cool though, I'd ride again and again; functional brief robot viewing or not!)
